Jokerman(Album Version) - Bob Dylan

Jokerman - Bob Dylan

Written by：Bob Dylan

Standing on the water casting your bread
你站在水里，为了赚钱
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
当这个偶像的眼睛和头发都散发光芒
Distant ships sailing into the mist
船舶航行到遥远的地方
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing
暴风雨来临，你出生的时候拳头里握着蛇
Freedom just around the corner for you
你最终会获取自由
But with truth so far off what good will it do
但是，随着真相的遥远，它又会做什么好事呢
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune
小丑在夜里跳舞
Bird fly high by the light of the moon
鸟儿在月光下飞向高处
Oh oh oh Jokerman
哦，哦，哦，小丑
So swiftly the sun sets in the sky
太阳迅速的在空中升起
You rise up and say goodbye to no one
你站起来没有和任何一个人道别
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
傻瓜们冲进了天使害怕去的地方
Both of their futures so full of dread you don't show one
你没有告诉别人他们的未来充满了恐惧
Shedding off one more layer of skin
从底层肌肤脱落
Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within
走在迫害者前头
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune
小丑在夜里跳舞
Bird fly high by the light of the moon
鸟儿在月光下飞向高处
Oh oh oh Jokerman
哦，哦，哦，小丑
You're a man of the mountains you can walk on the clouds
你是山上的一个男人， 你可以穿过云层
Manipulator of crowds you're a dream twister
人群的操作者，你的梦想变得更高
You're going to Sodom and Gomorrah
你将要去所多玛与蛾摩拉
But what do you care Ain't nobody there would want marry your sister
但是你在乎什么，不是每个人都想要娶你的姐姐
Friend to the martyr a friend to the woman of shame
牺牲的烈士朋友让这个女人羞愧
You look into the fiery furnace see the rich man without any name
你就像在火热的熔炉，看着不知名的富人们
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune
小丑在夜里跳舞
Bird fly high by the light of the moon
鸟儿在月光下飞向高处
Oh oh oh Jokerman
哦，哦，哦，小丑
Well the Book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy
很好，利未记和申命记书
The law of the jungle and the sea are your only teachers
丛林和海洋是你的老师
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed
奶白色的战马在朦胧的黎明中
Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features
米开朗基罗需要开拓你的未来
Resting in the fields far from the turbulent space
在这静止的领域，远离混乱的地方
Half asleep near the stars with a small dog licking your face
一个小狗在你半睡的时候舔你的脸
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune
小丑在夜里跳舞
Bird fly high by the light of the moon
鸟儿在月光下飞向高处
Oh oh oh Jokerman
哦，哦，哦，小丑
Well the rifleman's stalking the sick and the lame
很好，这个步枪兵跟踪病人和瘸子
Preacherman seeks the same who'll get there first is uncertain
牧师在寻找谁第一个迟疑不决的到达那里的人
Nightsticks and water cannons tear gas padlocks
警棍和水枪，迷雾弹和挂锁
Molotov cocktails and rocks behind every curtain
燃烧瓶和石块后面的每一个窗帘
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin
不善的法官死于骨架助板
Only a matter of time 'til the night comes stepping in
黑夜即将降临
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune
小丑在夜里跳舞
Bird fly high by the light of the moon
鸟儿在月光下飞向高处
Oh oh oh Jokerman
哦，哦，哦，小丑
It's a shadowy world skies are slippery gray
这是个朦胧的世界，天空变得灰暗
A woman just gave birth to a prince today and dressed him in scarlet
一个女人在今天诞下皇子并且让他穿着深红的衣服
He'll put the priest in his pocket put the blade to the heat
他会把这个神父放在身边并在心里祈祷
Take the motherless children off the street
把没有妈妈的孩子从街上带走
And place them at the feet of a harlot
并把它们放在妓娼的脚下
Oh Jokerman you know what he wants
哦，小丑你知道他想要什么
Oh Jokerman you don't show any response
哦，小丑你不需要回答什么
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune
小丑在夜里跳舞
Bird fly high by the light of the moon

Oh oh oh Jokerman
